$30.50 more to call. Pot is $85 before I call off, $115 after.

That big flop raise makes it look so much like he doesn't want a call that on the flop I put him on a draw (smaller flush or 75 T9) or maybe something like AQ, thus the donk-like call..should really have pushed if I trusted my read I guess

So, anyone like a call on the end here?

Folding here is retarded.

xast - would you call off full stack on the end?

and do I assume you would push flop whether short or full-stacked?

You have a $10k+ roll and you're still short-stacking?? You're easily good enough to buy in for full..

This is a call, I would probably push the flop though.

I just buy in for 60BB until I get some reads - I will either leave or buy up to full stack within 20 minutes (unless the only players with more than my stack are decent TAG's - and at the Tribeca $100's they are rarer than hen's teeth))
